Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The greatest dipole moment of the compound has to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Dipole moment:
The charge separation of the molecule produces dipole moment. Dipole moment arises between two ions in an ionic bond or covalent bond.
Dipole moment depends on the differences in electronegativity of the atom in the molecule. The electronegativity is more, the larger the dipole moment. The dipole moment is calculated from the polarity of the molecule.
